LONDON : FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 19, 1838. Some hopes are expressed in the Chronicle to-day, and are largely shared in the city, according to the communications from that quarter in the Morning Journals, that Lord DURHAM will yet be induced to retract his threatened resignation and retain the Go vernment of Ca na d a . Her MAJESTY, it is reported, has . written to his Lordship requesting him to do so, vvhlle the Ministers more immediately connected with him, Lord MELBOURNE and Lord GLENELG, have written to him to express their perfect approbation of his conduct. At the same time a very strong popular demonstration in his favour has been made in Canada. A requisition speedily and nume rously signed, the spontaneous production of the alarm felt by the inhabitants of Quebec, has been pre sented to him not to resign. Opposing parties are said to have laid aside their hostility in order to unite in supporting him, and even the Newspapers have sus pended their quarrels to express their regret at his anticipated departure, and a hope that he will not carry his resolution into effect. Such a very flattering and soothing homage will, if any thing can, induce Lord DURHAM to remain in Canada; and when to this we add, the desire he must naturally entertain to complete his great and his good work, it seems not impossible that the Noble Earl may get over his first deep sense of mortification, and remain in Canada. The private accounts, too, do not speak so favourably of the situation of the Colony as . his Lordship's addresses ; and if it be really exposed to considerable danger, inde pendently of his resignation, a sense of honour and duty may prevent him from immediately leaving his post, These circumstances seem to be the foundation of that hope which is felt in the City and expressed by our:Morn ing Contemporaries, but which afterthe expressions used by Lord DURHAM in his addresses in relation to the Parliament and the Ministers, we cannot share. For the good of Canada, probably, he should remain at his post ; but for his'own reputation's sake, as long as the world judges of a Statesman's conduct more by a consideration of what is due to his personal honour and feelings than by what is due to the public welfare, he should probably come home. Public considerations would induce us to recommend him to remain, but some little knowledge of his character forbids us to hope that even the soothing homage of her MAJESTY'S request, and of the popular approbation, together with the prospect of completing a good work, will induce him so to act. Should he return, the Parliament, which, it was stated very positively a few days ago, would not meet till the beginning of February, will probably be called together early in December. All accounts represent the Colony as now threatened with considerable danger; and it will be necessary that the body which has caused the mischief should be assem bled to try if it can obviate the consequences of its indiscretion. There seems to be but one feeling among the British inhabitants in the whole of our North Ameri can provinces on the subject of Lord DURHAM'S re signation. They would regard his departure as a de sertion of their cause—the hostility of the two parties would break out with fresh vigour—and they would be compelled to look for redress, rather to their own exer tions than to the acts of the British Parliament. What these exertions might be during the ensuing winter, the events of last year have given ample proofs. For the peace of the colonies, and the accomplishment of a great undertaking for which he was selected by his SOVEREIGN, it is confidently expected that he will disregard his own feelings, and look only to the in terests of the people—Canadian as well as British— over whom he has been placed. With the exception of the Quebec Gazette, nearly all the Journals in the Lower and Upper Provinces take this view of the subject, and display a degree of good sense and sound judgment highly creditable to the conductors of the Colonial Press. We give the following extract from the Popu laire as a specimen : " Lord Durham's general conduct is not censured on one solitary po int —a single ordinance is disallowed, and even this from o bj e ctions rather to the form than to the grounds upon the d e f ec ts in the legal provisions required, and net upon Lord Durham is in a situa the s e verity of the provisaionnsd . tion t o ra ve te sto, n eed not bend e asily to the blow lev b elled at h him. rm It is upon tr y in g occasions that men of energy temper their charac t e rs, and find resolution to surmount the obstacles opposed to them. He left Eng land to r e s tore order in this important portion of the British dominions—lse undertook to soothe all our differences, and cannot return to the mother country till he has fulfilled his mission, whilst in so doing he will obtain the most trium phant victory over his political enemies." Although we think it as superfluous, on a principle of abstract justice, to argue against the policy of the Corn-laws, as to argue against the policy of any ()diet species of robbery, for they are an open and avowed though strictly legal robbery, yet u the question will not be discussed in Parliament on principles of right and wrong, it seems advisable to show occasionally that they are injurious and inexpedient as well as un- just. The avowed object of the laws is indeed iuiie sufficient to satisfy all honest . inen of the impolicy of them, and ..1-„ey do not require even to reflect that is in the wide world no class of quacks whose egregious and enormous errors can match those of the race of arrogant and expedient politicians. They are continually at fault, even when they have arithmetic to guide them, for two and two make not four in the Customs, but sometimes less than one-and-a-half. In their moral calculations they they have gone continually still more wide of the truth, for very few or none of their enactments have ever an swered their own expectations. Nothing short, there fore, of the most overwhelming evidence, which can set aside all other records of experience, ought for one mo ment to make the public suppose that plunder decreed by them, can ever be more expedient or beneficial than the plunder which has not the sanction of their solemn deliberations. One of the statements cn which they most rely to humbug the public is that corn cannot be grown as cheap in England as in some neighbouring countries ; that, consequently, were free importation to be allowed, our agriculture would be depressed, our land would go out of cultivation, and our people would become - wholly dependent on foreigners for food, and our manufacturers and traders would be much more in jured by the decay and distress of the rural and agri cultural population than benefited by the exclusion of fo reign trade. We mean to , u')jcct these assertions to exa mination. They all depend on the statement that corn cannot be grown as cliceply in England as in other countries ; and we shall begin, therefore, by exa mining that. What is meant by the statement that it costs more to grow corn here than in Poland ? What are the elemcnts of the cost of growing corn ? We put out of consideration the fertility of the soil, for that costs nothing. In what that con sists no man exactly knows ; and many soils which to one species of skirl are utterly barren and unproduc tive, are to another eminently fertile. But even if we took it into consideration, we must say, with Mr. CRAWFORD, in his last letter to the Glasgow Argus, that " our climate is as geed and our soil is more fer tile than any in Europe, the great plains of Lombardy and Flanders excepted." It was long ago remarked by ARTHUR YOUNG that, acre for acre, the produce of the corn land of England was considerably greater than the produce of the corn land of France. Taking England on the average, and, throughout, its fertility is fully equal to that of any country of Europe ; we mean that the application to any portion of its surface, of average fertility, of any given quantity of labour, with our present knowledge, will produce as much corn as the same quantity of labour applied to any portion of Poland or Prussia, of average fertility ; and that on the score of relative fertility it does not require or cost more labour to produce corn in England than in Poland. But it is said that our increasing population compels us to have recourse to land of decreasing fertility, which requires more labour to win from it an equal supply. This is not a fact, but a theory, put forth by Mr. RICARDO and Mr. MA LTHus ; and it is not a little curious that those who continually deride both these writers, blindly adopt one of their most glaring errors as the groundwork and defence of a nefarious scheme of plunder. So far is it from fact, that the last land taken into cultivation produces less than that before cultivated, that Mr. ELLMAN, a great agriculturist in Sussex, a sturdy advocate of the Corn-laws, and therefore an excellent authority, asserts in a letter recently published, that, notwith standing the great increase of population in the county, the breadth of corn-land under cultivation has not increased, but the produce of the county, and, of course, of the land last cultivated, has increased. The increased supplies required, however, for our increasing population, are mainly drawn, inde pendently of the increasing fertility of England, from Ireland and Scotland ; and it is a well-known fact that the land there recently cultivated with wheat, and particularly in the former country, exceeds in fertility the wheat land of England. It is not true, therefore, that we are obliged to have recourse to land of decreas ing fertility to obtain food. That is a mere theory framed to account for a partial phenomenon, and to bolster up, by a one-sided view of the progress of population, a multitude of political wrongs. But even if this were true, by what right or by what sort of reasoning can the Legislature justify its scheme of making the community pay a great increase of price on all the corn grown on land of superior fer tility, in order to retain in cultivation the inferior land? Suppose that there are ten millions of acres cultivated with wheat, and that on • one million it costs five shillings per quarter more to grow wheat than on the other nine millions ; is it not a gross, a palpable, a manifest injustice to make, by law, the people pay ss. per quarter more on all the corn grown on the nine millions of acres, in order to keep the one million of bad land in cultivation ? If it be right to act on a principle of encouraging the cultiva tion of bad land, the Legislature is bound to ascertain the land which requires additional labour and expense to grow corn, and to confine the bounty to that, and not enrich at our expense the owners of the fertile land, by making us give them an increased price for their commodity. But the whole statement is a piece of sheer humbug and false theory, which has no foundation in fact. It is not true that it costs more to grow corn as society advances ; it is not true that the acre of land last taken into cultivation yields less corn than the acre first cultivated two thousand years ago ; it is not true that England is relatively to labour less fertile than any other countries ; and it is not true, therefore, on the score of fertility, or on the score of increasing population, that it costs more to grow the corn required by our people than to grow corn in Poland or in Prussia. We have now said all that is necessary on the sub ject of the fertility of our own and other countries, and we shall examine the real elements of the cost of growing corn, into which fertility does not enter, in another Paper. The contest which has been going on for the last few days in the parish of St. George, Southwark, ended yesterday, as our readers will perceive, in the triumph of the Liberal party. There were two ques tions at issue, and two separate polls were taken. The first was whether a twopenny or three halfpenny Church-rate should be laid, which was decided in favour of the smaller rate. The object of the Liberal party, in reducing the rate, was to prevent certain items—such as the washing of surplices, sundry dozens of fine old sherry, &c.—which the Church wardens had introduced into their estimate, and which they obstinately persisted in retaining, from being paid for out of the pockets of the parishioners. If the ecclesiastical authorities of St. George's choose to jollify, they must now pay their own reckoning. The second question related to the building of a house for the Rector. The abuse -supporting Tories were for an immediate vote in favour of the proposition. The Liberals thought that it might admit of some doubt whether it was better policy to purchase an acre of freehold ground (for this was stated to be the smallest quan tity that could f.,r,n the foundation and appurte- I nances of a recutoeritaol m p a a t y lsio th n e ), aßndecbtourildeiaghhtoy puseouupnodn it, s or to con= a-year in lieu of a house. They, therefore, proposed that the consideration of the subject should be post poned until next Easter, when a full attendance of the parishioners might be expected. They carried this point also, so that the Tories of St. George's South wark have not come off with flying colours. In another place we insert a well deserved testimo nial to the merit of Captain HOSKEN, and the advan tages conferred on the country by the Company, which, by sending the Great Western across the At lantic, has afforded such striking proofs of the power of steam navigation. On an inspection of the log of that ship, published in our Journal yesterday, the re markable fact is apparent, that whatever might be the wind or the weather, the number of miles she ran each day varies comparatively little. The first day was, we presume, a short one, and we omit it ; the second, in calm weather, she made only ' 206 miles, for which we cannot account, but on all the rest of the days the greatest variation was only 34 miles. The length of the outward voyage, four days more than the homeward voyage, shows that the wind and the waves are yet of some consideration in steam navigation ; but four days in a distance of nearly three thousand miles is a pretty correct measure of the maximum of their influence. The noble passages of the Great Western, therefore, and the equal distances she performed each day, entitle us to assert that steam navigation enables man to rise superior to both wind and waves. Great praise is due to Sir LIONEL SMITH,' :he Governor-General of Jamaica, for the zeal, the industry, and the patience with which his Excellency labours to promote a spirit of concord between the West India Planters, and the newly emancipated co loured population. To restrain the insolence of a hitherto dominant and tyrannical faction—to moderate the fanciful expectations of an ignorant population, intoxicated with the first draught of liberty—to substitute a mutual forgetfulness of wrong and the knowledge of a common interest, for hatred on the one side and a spirit of dark revenge on the other, has been the constant endeavour of the Governor-General since the first of August last. Nor was the conduct by which he sought to prepare the minds of the colonists of every class for the events of a day so glorious in the annals of Christian England less distinguished by the attributes of a just, a liberal, and a truly paternal policy. To the rude complaints of the negroes he personally lent a patient ear, and by remembering in his judg ments that they were men and not slaves, he won their entire esteem and confidence ; while in repressing the domineering spirit of the planters, he covered them with confusion by continually reminding them that they were Englishmen—the fellow-sub jects of a people boasting of their independence, proud of their free institutions, and naturally ad verse to every species of cruelty and oppression. By blending the inflexibility of a just Governor and Chief Magistrate with the mild persuasiveness of a general Pacificator—by uniting in his individual per son the decisiveness of a Judge with the temporizing moderation of a friendly umpire, Sir LIONEL SMITE! contrived to surmount difficulties which would have proved fatal to any Colonial Administration conducted under similar circumstances, with a temper less pliant, and in a spirit more arbitrary than he was careful to exhibit. But while the accounts from the West Indies, which appear in another part of The Sun, proclaim the justice, the humanity, and the political wisdom of Sir LIONEL SMITH'S past exertions, they are not calculated to satisfy us that no future evil will arise from the cupidity of the planters, and the ignorance of the free labourers. On the contrary, we believe that there never was a time more fraught with the seeds of danger to the Colonies in the West Indies than the present, provided the greatest pains be not taken to hold the balance even among all parties, and above all to give life, vigour, and vivifying effect to the counsels of the Governor, in all that relates to the ad ministration of a mediatorial authority. It will be seen that Sir LIONEL SMITH openly charges several agents of the planters with deliberately endea vouring to destroy the value of Jamaica estates in the British market, for the malevolent pur pose of creating a panic ; and, though the charge was preferred in the presence of a body of agents, it does not appear that a syllable of denial was uttered. Now, it must be manifest to every friend to the peace of the Colonies that the sooner such agents are dismissed, and, if possible, removed from the West Indian Islands, the greater will be the security of life and property. As we have more than once stated, the old slave-driving whites ought to be entirely removed, and their places upon the estates filled by men whose minds and morals have not been contaminated by a fami liarity with the degrading vices of slavery. To effect this is one of the good works that ought to engage the attention of the English emanci pationists, and, less directly, the Supreme Govern ment. We are confident that there are many planters in England who would dismiss their agents at a moment's notice, if made acquainted with the moral impossibility of their superintending, with justice, the labours of a race of whom all pre-existing laws made them the merciless tormentors. Let the oppresssors disappear with the oppression, and all may yet be well. The Paris Journals of Wednesday have just been received by express. In the annexed extracts from them will be found all the news they bring of interest : An extraordinary courier, who left Madrid on the night of the Bth, arrived yesterday evening at the hotel of the Spanish Legation. He has brought the nomination of the Marquis de Aliraflores, as Ambassador Extraordinary to the Co ur t o f F rance, i n t h e room o f the Marquis d'Espeja, who has for some time past been soliciting his recal, to be able to go to S pa i n , w h e re family affairs of great im portance require his presence. The Imperial Council of Commerce has had to-day its second sitting, to hear the delegates of the sea-ports and of the two rival parties. The Memorial de Bordeaux, of the 13th, publishes the following extract of a letter from M. Laborde, French agent at Rio Hacha, addressed to M. Dupeyrat, jun., at Bordeaux, and dated June 30 : " Be so good, Sir, as to have the following article in serted in the journals : ". The Government of New Grenada, by virtue of a law of the 2d of May last, declares the importation of all kinds of silver coin prohibited in the ports of New Grenada, on pain of confiscation. L. LABORDE, French Agent."' A Spaniard, the Marquis de Villa Palma, who was pass ing through Bordeaux, was suspected of zealously labour ing to promote the success of the cause of Don Carlos, from whose head-quarters he came. The police caused a domici liary visit to be made, and he was afterwards o r d ere d to quit Bordeaux, and go far into the interior of Chateauroux. —Moniteur. The Ilioniteur contains the decree of Marshal Vallee relative to the government and administration of the pro vince of Constantine, and a letter from the Marshal to the Minister of War, relative to the occupation of Stora. The Memorial Bordelais, a French Ministerial journal, very much devoted to the cause of Christiana, has the fol lowing article : " ARRIVAL IN SPAIN OF THE PRINCESS OF BEIRA AND OF THE PRINCE OF THE ASTURIAS. " One of the journals of this city lately mentioned a domiciliary visit at the house of the Marquis de Villa Palma, who lives at Bordeaux. The object of this mea sure was probably connected with a report that was in cir culation y es t er d a y that the Princess of Beira, sister of Don Ivliguel and Don Pedro, and also of the late consort of Don Carlos, has lately passed through Bordeaux, and has al ready entered Spain with the eldest son of the Pretender, who is twenty-one years of age, and with the Abbe Amat, delegated by the Pope t o p e rform the solemnity of her marriage with Don Carlos." The Princess of Beira, a Portuguese, who is said to be endowed with rare talents and extraordinary energy, would thus become, in fact, the Pretended Queen of Spain. We were informed of the entrance of these two illus. trious personages into Navarre, but we thought it better not to speak of it till we received our letters from the Royal head-quarters. The young Prince and the Princess left Bayonne on the morning of the 11th, and arrived on the 12th, at Urdax, the first village on the Royalist frontiers of Spain. Their Royal Highnesses were accompanied by two ecclesiastics, Senor Tamirez de la Pisceira and Arnett.— Gazette de France. Dutch and Brussels mails have been received this morning. We subjoin extracts from them THE HAGUE, Oct. 10.—The Second Chamber of the States General had its first sitting to-day. The qualifica• tier' of the new members were examined and approved. The Chamber afterwards balloted for three candidate for the office of Speaker. The choice fell on M. de Jonge Van Campius Nicuedlandt, M. Luza, and M. Van Sytzaraa. The list will be presented to his Majesty to choose one. The Chamber then adjourned indefinitely. M.

BRUSSELS, OCT. 16.—The average prices of corn in the week ending on the 13th were—Wheat, 23f. 16c. ; Rye, 13f. 53c. per hectolitre. Wheat is there free, still exempt from import duty ; and Rye continues to pay 21f. 50c. per 1,000 kilogrammes. Several more witnesses have been in terrogated in the affair of Mr. Ries. Mr. Melchior Kamp, of Antwerp, has just been ap pointed Consul-General of the Papal States for all Bel gium, by letters patent, dated September 20. This is the first time that the Courts of Rome has appointed a Con sul-General in this country, This circumstance must be favourable to the commercial interest of Belgium, and affords a new proof of the harmony that subsists between the two Governments.

PRICES OF SHARES THI GUILDHALL.-(THIS DA Y.) POCKET PlCKlN6.—Charles Andrews was charged with having picked the pocket of Lord Alfred Harvey, in Far ritigdon-street. It appeared from the statement of one of the officers that about four o'clock yesterday afternoon he saw the prisoner put his hand into his Lordship's pocket, and take out a silk handkerchief. Another witness deposed that he saw the prisoner drop it on the ground. • Lord Alfred Harvey identified the handkerchief, and the prisoner were committed to Bridewell for a month. MILITARY HAT FOUND.—Janzes Stedman and John Colton were brought before Mr. Alderman MAGNAY, under the following circumstances : One of the constables deposed that last night, about ten minutes before eight, he observed the prise lers together in Wood-street. Stedman was carrying a military hat-case, which he opened, and, after going a little further, he put it on the ground and left it. Witness then followed, and took him into custody. The other prisoner was stopped by a gentleman who was passing. The case was empty, and marked inside with the letter " B." John Smith, pot-boy at the Wooi;:•Eck Inn, deposed that on hearing the cry of " Stop thief," he went to the door and picked up the hat, which he produced. Admiral Sykes, who was present, stated that it ;yas an Army officer's hat. Stedman, who denied the charge, said, in answer to a question by the Alderman, that he was a cab driver. Mr. Alderman MAGNAY supposed that the case had been left in his cab. The prisoner said he knew nothing about it. The other prisoner also denied all knowledge of the transaction. They were both remanded. EXTORTION BY A TOLL-COLLECTOR.—A Collector of the City Toll, named West, appeared to answer a charge of extortion, preferred against him by Henry Woolger, ser vant to Mr. Salmon, in the Borough. The complainant stated that, on the 15th of Sept., he drove his cart with a load to the Minories, where he paid the toll, and received a ticket, He afterwards drove to Skinner-street, when he saw Mr. 'West, who demanded two-pence, and refused to let him pass, although he exhi bited a ticket given at the Minories. After remaining about twenty minutes, witness fetched a policeman, who ad vised him to pay the two-pence, which he The defendant said he was satisfied in his own mind that it was not the same load. Mr. Alderman MAGNAY asked if he could give any proof, or if be knew what the first load consisted of? The defendant replied in the negative. Mr. Alderman MAGNAY said this was the third case of extortion which had come before him this week. When a ticket was produced the collector had no right to stop a party on the mere supposition that he was taking another load. He was very doubtful whether the case ought not to be sent to the Sessions, for the sake of making an example, because it appeared there was a complete system of extor tion in existence. As, however, the other parties had been allowed to settle the matter, he would allow that to be done in the present case, with this warning, that the next case brought before the Magistrates would assuredly be sent to the Ses • sions, and perhaps when it was understood that any prose cution would be directed by the City Solicitor, and not at the expense of the parties, it would have a good effect. MA.RYLEBONE.-(THIS DAY.) Mr. GEORGE DUPPA.—The investigation of this most extraordinary and unfounded charge which was brought against this gentleman by a person named Harriet Willet, of 35, Gloucester-place, New-road, and which was published in The Sun of last Monday, was again entered upon to-day, and its result was the perfect release of Mr. Duppa from even a shadow of suspicion. The first witness sworn was James Kirby, a butler of Duppa, at Hollingborn hill (the brother of the accused gentleman. He stated Mr. Ceorge Duppa slept at his master's house, in Kent, forty-one miles from London, on Sunday night ; that he called him very early en Monday morning (the day on which Mrs. Willet averred he took the three sovereigns) for the purpose of going to a fox-cover, and that he waited on him at table at breakfast, at luncheon, between one and two o'clock, mid at dinner at six that day. Thomas Franklin was the next witness. He deposed that he was a wine•merchant residing in Maidstone ; that he attended a meeting of fox-honnds on Monday, and was introduced, between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock, to the gentleman who was thus accused. Another gentleman, named Coulter, from Maidstone, deposed that on the day alluded to by Mrs. Willet he met Mr. George Duppa and his brother, riding on the road, at Lunstal Park, near Maidstone, and swore to many tri fling circumstances, which showed that he could not be mistaken as to the time or locality of meeting Mr. Duppa. The gentleman was accordingly released from the respon sibility of the bail under which he was bound to appear, and left the office perfectly free from a shadow of suspicion no to his identity with the individual who called at Mrs: Willet's on Monday week last. THE MARKETS.—crnin DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The weather having been boisterous, there are small ar rivals of both Grain and Flour this week, but a good quan tity of Irish Oats. The country demand for Wheat con. tinues, and full 3s. per quarter advance on Monday's terms has been this day realized, and a considerable quantity sold. Barley remains firm at last quotations. Beans and Pease have sold slowly at former prices. The Oat trade is dull, and Monday's terms have not quite been obtained. Flour firm, and expected higher, the quantity here being very short.

PUBLIC SALE OF COTTON —(THIS DAY). This morning, at the Commercial Sale Rooms, Mincing lane, about 8,000 bales of Cotton, mostly Surat, were brought to the hammer. All did not sell, but that which did fetched about previous market prices, of from 3d. to sd. The sale was steady. TEA SALE.—(FOURTEENTH DAY.) The sale to-day was rather more quiet, but prices did not vary from previous quotations. Up to the time we left the sale, we should say that about 200,000 packages had passed, out of which about 100,000 were sold. COLONIAL MARKET. This market is now dull, and but very little passing either by public sale or private contract. For a Friday very little has been done, and but little during the week. B. P. Sugar sells slowly, and prices are 50s. for the lowest, 565. for mid dling, and 635. for fine. These prices are full 6d. per cwt. lower than this day week. Refined goods are secur ing no business. We had no public sales of Sugar to day. Coffee, 1,200 bags Brazil, sold much at previous prices, which are 345. to 485., according to quality. The quotations of British Plantation Coffee are from 80s. for ordinary, to 115 s. for middling, up to 130 s. for fine. There were some small sales of Ginger, Pepper, Mace, Cloves, and Nutmegs, which passed off without showing any variation in value. Saltpetre, 1,309 bags, sold at prices varying from 245. to 265. 6d., according to quality. A small parcel of Cocoa fetched previous rates. The imports arc increasing. DUTY ON COFFEE.—MORE PLUNDER.—On the Continent the price of raw coffee per pound is somewhere about 8d or 9d. ; here it is about Is. 10d. But the duty here on British Plantation Coffee is only 6d., which duty cannot be the cause of the difference in price. The duty, however, on fo reign coffee is I s . 3d , so that we may conclude we pay about 9d. per lb. on our coffee for the advantage of drinking coffee grown in Jamaica or Demerara, instead of drinking that which is grown in Martinique. We call the attention of the landowners and agriculturists to this tax, levied on them so far as they are coffee-drinkers, for their brother agriculturists of our colonies; and will readily aid them m getting rid of it. They, however, we arc afraid will smile encouragement on the coffee growers of Demerara ; it keeps them in countenance, and they will insist on the propriety of protecting the agricul ture of our own colonies, if they may only be allowed to retain their tax on our bread. The compromise, however, between coffee-growers and corn-growers will not satisfy the bread eaters and coffee-drinkers, who are plundered and sacrificed to gratify the unjust cupidity of planters abroad and planters at home.

The Editor of this splendid Annual, which is of a full quarto size, is Miss Sheridan, who is the author of several lively pieces in prose and verse, which attracted no slight notice in their day. She has executed her present task with great ability, selecting only such contributions as are likely to meet with public favor. The first article in the volume is a poem from the pen of Thomas Campbell, which is founded on an interesting anecdote recorded of Napoleon at the time when he was busy with his army at Boulogne, preparing for the invasion of England. The poem is written in a somewhat quaint measure, but con tains passages of genuine feeling, as, where describing a British sailor who had been take❑ prisoner, and carried to Boulogne, the author says of him, " They suffered him—l know not how— Imprisoned on the shore to roam, And aye was bent his youthful brow, On England's home. " His eye, methinks, pursued the flight Of birds to Britain, half-way over, With envy—they could reach the white Dear cliffs of Dover I" In addition to contributions from the pens of some of our most eminent living writers, Miss Sheridan has pre sented us with some short pieces that have never, we be :eve, till now, appeared in print, written by Congrevl, the famoi. Earl of Chesterfield, the Duke of Richmond, and the beanial Duchess of Devonshire, of Westminster election nutori:°ty. That by the Earl of Chesterfield is a short poem, court and pointed, penned, in short, in a very gentleman-usher sort of style, as was the case with the rhymed bagatelles of poetic, l amateurs of rank and fashion in those days. The best line jn this lively trifle is wherein Truth is described as a " stra n g e, old f ashioned fellow," than which no two epithets coul d have been more happily characteristic. " Absence" by the Ho n. Grantley Berkley is sad stuff, and reminds us of the " Verses by a Person of Quality" in Swift's Miscellany. Wh at is to be said for such a couplet as this ? that " Oh let the balmy morning breeze this sigh bear on its wing, And waft it to that shady grove wbere hymns of Nature ring. Toe words marked in italics are mere expletives—a sacri fice of reason to rhyme—and worthy only of the genius of a fourth-form boy at Eton. " Lines to Lady Emmeline Stuart Wortley, on seeing how well she looked, after her hair was cut quite short at Beivoir Castle, in 1838" —ha w exceedingly particular Sir J. Dean Paul is in recording the dAte of this remarkable operation !—are worthy to vie with the " Absence" of Mr. Grantley Berkeley. The gift Baronet after comparing her Ladyship to Sampson---that prodigy of muscle ! hastens to address her in this comp mentary couplet : " Your classic head, when stripped of every tress, Gaining by loss, looks beautifully less !" This is unquestionably a striking fact, and one that deserves to be embalmed in the imperishable poesy of S ir John Dean Paul, Bart.! What indeed can be more surprising than that a lady's head should look less, when she has had it clo4 cropped, than when all the hair was growing up on it ! John goes on to observe,— " Pope would have writ of ravished locks in vain Had he but seen hew you, by clipping, gain," (There is a slight mistake here. Lady Emmeline did so t " gain by clipping," but her hair-dresser, who w as no dou bt handsomely remunerated for the operation.) " And Beauty's critics, seeing what you are, Would say that now you're suited to a hair !" no Beauty's critics—begging the poet's pardon—would sai such thing ; but on the contrary, they would say that a 1 : 1 ;:', with her head shaved, might be suited to a wig, but eert a l p n lY , not " to a hair," inasmuch as there would not be a siafi e , ° a left upon her scalp.

FAMINE IN INDIA.—Most ?eplorable accounts have reached this country from the Upper Provinces of India. by which it appears that myriads of working people have lis.,eo reduced to starvation through the g eneral s.atern of making e their subsistence contingent upon a certain pratortion of th produce they raise, instead of paying them a fixti amountra, re gularly in the shape of money-wages.
